I assume this means that yum found a newer version of some package, but it wasn't in the explicit list of packages I've defined for dag? Just curious.

It just means that you are somehow filtering dag's repo using either:

exclude=some_package_package

or

includepkgs=some_package_names

and that there are no updates.

If you use exclude= or includepkgs= ... yum removes excluded packages prior to dependency resolution.
